Kyle Whittingham Reaction Starts at :51 Brian can't make fun of the name "Kyle" anymore. Woah, Alex Drain is here! Did Kyle Whittingham get pushed out of Utah? He's 66 but could probably beat up several members of the current team, he doesn't feel too old. This might be the best guy to hit the ground running with Bryce Underwood. He's had a 20+ year stretch of success and it's mostly over-performing expectations statistically. Are there concerns about the way this would translate to Michigan? Utah folks are asking if we're prepared for limited media availability, a coach who can sound like a jerk, and a 300 lbs fullback. Yes, yes we are. Kyle Whittingham's risk for scandal seems extremely low. How many coaches in the Big Ten would you pick over him? His dad's nickname was "Mad Dog". A brief history of his success over his coaching career, which included two PAC-12 Championships. Kyle lets his QB run the ball, Bryce's output this season would've been the worst for Utah going back at least a decade. Harbaugh had a great hit rate on sleeper recruits, Whittingham should as well. He has some very Harbaugh-adjacent quotes as well. What's your letter grade for the hire? [The rest of the writeup and the player after THE JUMP]  2. Assistants Starts at 42:48 The new staff is coming together pretty quickly. Jason Beck is lining up to be the offensive coordinator, coming in from Utah. Alex details his history as a coach which was mostly as an offensive coordinator and QB coach. He likes hybrid players and will love the tight end room. Jay Hill is lined up from BYU as defensive coordinator, BYU fans are not thrilled that he's leaving. He took a 100ish ranked defense and turned it into a top 25 defense. He also made Weber State a powerhouse while he was there. He'll play more man-defense than we're used to which might not be what we want against Ohio State. Jay Hill could also be a head coach in waiting down the road. It feels like the defense is going to be coached again. Jason Beck could be a QB coach but there are rumors that Koy Detmer Jr could come in as an analyst/QB coach. All signs point to Tony Alford being retained. Ron Bellamy will probably stick around, they still need a Michigan guy and he might be the most "Michigan Guy" on staff. Freddie Whittingham could likely come in at tight ends coach, he is not a nepotism hire. He could also be a recruiting coordinator guy if you want to keep Grant Newsome around. Jim Harding could be the offensive line coach coming out of Utah. Lewis Powell might be coming in as defensive ends coach out of Utah. Lou Esposito might stay at Michigan. Linebackers coach is the one area where we haven't heard anything. Whittingham has mentioned going after a coach that is still in the playoffs. Jernaro Gilford might follow Jay Hill as the defensive backs coach. LaMar Morgan is a good recruiter so maybe you keep him. What about Special Teams coach? Time to move on from Kerry Coombs already? How would you grade these potential hires?  3. Hot Takes and The Search, Revisited Starts at 1:38:48 Takes hotter than the Utah message boards. It was a wild ride getting from DeBoer, Fisch, or Dillingham to here. A lot of information was coming from agents getting names out there. A lot of people said "Biff Poggi could get the job" and it was never going to happen. Did Michigan really never go and try to offer Dillingham a job? It feels like his people really hyped him up. We might be having a very different conversation if that Oklahoma receiver would've just caught that ball. Everyone penciled in Dillingham after the Oklahoma Alabama game and then he signs an extension. Whittingham was unemployed, he probably didn't have agents hyping him up. Brian still likes Jeff Brohm. Interestingly Penn State never went after Whittingham but once the Michigan job opened up he said he was "in the transfer portal." Why was Biff Poggi on that podcast? He was shooting his shot for a job but it was never going to happen. How well did the "insiders" do and how clued in will they be on the new staff.  4. Michigan Football vs Texas Starts at 2:18:38 Oh yeah Michigan has a bowl game. The only opt-outs are El-Hadi, Derrick Moore, and Barham (and Ernest Hausmann). Maybe it's a good sign that a lot of players still want to play in this? Six of 11 defensive starters are sitting out for Texas, most of their offense is playing. Michigan's best hope is to watch Arch Manning turf five-yard outs. I guess we'll see Wink walk off the field as a Michigan coach for the last time. This feels like a zombie team right now. Does Michigan have a way to stop Ryan Wingo? The Ohio State game feels like four years ago. Are you excited for this game? A lot of big-name guys have at least remained in the recruiting class. The hope of the Sherrone era was "hopefully he just gets better at coaching" and it's a relief to just move on. What was the most enjoyable game of the Sherrone era? Not the highlight, but the most fun beginning-to-end? A lot of things about the last two to three years make a lot more sense now. A lot of paranoia and worry feels lifted, there are adults in charge.  MUSIC: "Medium Machine"—Sports Team "Inept Apollo"—Nation of Language "Where'd You Go"—Horsegirl “Across 110th Street”—JJ Johnson and his Orchestra

The Context of White Supremacy hosts the weekly summit on Neutralizing Workplace Racism 12/18/25 The New York Times printed a column discussing the trauma of being at an office holiday party. Liquor consumption was the main culprit - and unruly White behavior. The NYT recommended no more than 2 drinks at the office party - alongside a bevy of constructive reasons for limited alcohol intake amongst co-workers. Gus T. recommends remaining sober for the entire event. It is massively important to be 100% when in the company of your colleagues. Interestingly, 'Bay Area Mom' reported that her colleagues consumed cannabis on the rooftop during their holiday office shindig. Apparently, children were present for this event. Additionally, Gus was stunned to read Milwaukee's WISN to find that a black male bus driver was falsely accused of operating a school bus while intoxicated. Joel Sills, a privileged black father of 3, was, ordered from the bus, publicly humiliated, and forced to take a breathalyzer - which he passed. #BeaverCounty INVEST in The COWS – http://paypal.me/TheCOWS Cash App: https://cash.app/$TheCOWS CALL IN NUMBER: 720.716.7300 CODE 564943#

Send us a textA bully becomes a king, a genius breaks his own rules, and a timeline slips on a banana peel. We dive headfirst into Back to the Future Part II with a debate that starts in neon-soaked 2015 and lands right back in the grease and gears of 1955. We trade laughs over hoverboards, self-lacing Nikes, and that unforgettable manure gag, then get serious about the film's true engine: the sports almanac heist and the branching consequences that follow. Along the way, we question Doc Brown's selective ethics, cheer Thomas F. Wilson's shape-shifting turn as Biff and Griff, and talk through why Elizabeth Shue's Jennifer recast feels big even as the script sidelines her.Between the sponsor cold open and our Epic Universe field report, we explore how futurism in the film plays more like retro Tomorrowland than prophecy, yet still charms through texture and tone. The 1955 set-piece wins us over with razor-sharp timing and playful parallel editing that dovetails with Part I without collapsing it. We call out the cascade of Part III breadcrumbs—Mad Dog nods, Old West daydreams, the “chicken” trigger—while weighing whether it's elegant foreshadowing or a flashing neon arrow. And yes, we spot baby Elijah Wood, laugh at inconspicuous outfits that aren't, and rank the series' best running jokes.If you love movie craft that balances stakes with wit, performances that stretch across ages and realities, and franchise storytelling that dares to fold back on itself, this conversation's for you. Hit play, then tell us: did Part II nail 2015, or does its heart belong to 1955? Subscribe, share with a fellow time traveler, and leave a five-star review so we can keep the timeline humming.Support the show
